I introduced the idea of tasks mostly as a generic thing, for task-tracking applications that are not git-specific.
However, I also imagined that there are people using NIP-34 issues already, and that they might want to track them in a workflow. So in the "XXD" draft, I introduce workflows that can track any nostr kind, including git issues and more generic tasks. The intent was to keep compatibility with NIP-34, but also provide a more generic task type for non-git applications.

That's awesome to hear! Where can I read more about it? I am curious to hear your thoughts on that spec, and for what use cases you want to use it for!

You could do that! You could achieve this by running a nostr relay from a local computer, and set the address to point to it on the command line arguments.

@npub12gy…3jj5 I can confirm this is also the case of v1.13.1, so it doesn’t seem to be a regression in 1.14 per say — maybe it is more noticeable because of the overlay message.
Do you know of any specific versions when this behaviour was different?
Also, @npub1xts…kk5s what would be the expected behaviour? I think we should have a setting for it, I can see different people wanting different behaviours.

Thank you @npub1rzg…kxve for the information!
Can you please confirm:
1. whether your Coinos NWC connection was working before (e.g. if zaps were working before)
2. How long ago you setup your Coinos NWC connection?
The reason I ask is that I am aware that Coinos had reset some NWC connections a few weeks ago, so those stopped working.
If you suspect that might be the case for you, can you please try setting up a second NWC connection on the Coinos website and connecting to that?

I put together an experimental relay for selective file sharing over #blossom and #nostr that allows users to upload files and selectively share them with other users, with the following features:
🚦 Uploaded files are not publicly accessible by default
🔓 Files become available only to nostr users selected by the uploader
I created this to help me experiment with the concept of collective backups and social recovery of files/photos, but thought it could be useful to other builders on the space, so I am publishing it!
Here is where you can find it (still highly experimental 🧪):

On top of what I mentioned in my previous comment, I would discourage using rust-nostr for new Damus features at the moment, we will likely switch over to Terry's Nostr iOS SDK.

I think we have a function for that in the codebase itself. It might be called "find_events" or something similar, and I believe it's defined on ContentView.swift. If you search the codebase for "find_event" you will probably find it!

The sad truth is that people don't own their iPhones.
People have this illusion (myself included) that they hold their iPhone and it's an object that they own. But you can only run apps that they let you run, you can only get it fixed if they want to fix it for you, and when they find your device is too old, they throw it into obsolescence, effectively turning it into a useless brick.
People don't own iPhones. They simply rent the iPhone experience for as long as Apple wants them to.

Yes, we added a fix for this issue that we will release soon!
Worth noting that, with the current fix, users that already ran into the issue will need to login and logout out of the other account to unregister with the server.
We can likely address that specific edge case with another change to notepush

I believe SSH is somewhat underrated as a Freedom Tech protocol.
It is stable and reliable, features built-in pubkey authentication, does not require certificate provisioning, and can establish multiple secure data channels for almost any purpose.
It sounds like an excellent protocol to build on.

It is not much posting compared to some other people I have seen on Nostr, but definitely my own personal record, I used to post close to zero things when using other platforms 😂
I am way more proactive on Nostr than I have ever been on any platform in my life, and that makes me happy 😄

@npub1ltv…rdzg, have these issues been occurring since you installed Damus, or have they only started after a certain time?
If the issue has been there since you installed Damus, then I believe you ran into a known issue with one of our past Damus versions. In that case, you can fix these problems by going to Settings > First Aid > Reset Contact list.
Please let me know if that works, or if you have any other questions! Thanks! 🙏

GM
Constraints are often seen as a bad thing to be overcome or complained about — but with a shift in perspective, they can often be viewed as an opportunity.
People tend to complicate things. Constraints can help by forcing one to constantly reconsider their approach and shift their focus towards fewer but more important things.
If simplicity is the highest sophistication, then constraints are the way the Universe guides you to uphold that principle.

2024-12-16 09:38:43

It is an event that other clients, including Damus, should pick up.
However, I have ran into problems in the past where certain relays have outdated lists. This is more likely when removing several relays and adding new ones in their place

2024-12-09 10:18:07

Depends on the specific tweak, but I would imagine there are many that are probably low hanging fruits

I haven’t noticed repeated param keys on URLs in practice, which made me form an incorrect assumption
If it works, then I agree having repeated “r” query entries is a good syntax!

2024-11-19 19:07:46

- reply

I love the idea of URLs with nostr entities and inline relay hints.
This type of URL syntax also models nostr architecture very well. Instead of specifying a host location and then the desired resource like most URLs, we specify the desired resource, and then the host locations where that could be found, which is exactly the architectural paradigm shift that defines Nostr
We probably want to double-check RFC 3986 to help define some of the details.
For example, we probably want to use “nostr:” instead of “nostr://“ because the “//“ denotes an “authority” (Section 3.2) that controls the namespace of the remainder of the URL, which would not be the case since the protocol would define the meaning of the query parameters.
Furthermore, I am not sure if we can repeat keys on the query parameters, and if it would be compatible with most URL parsing libraries. Section 3.4 of the spec doesn’t seem to forbid it, but might be good to test with major libraries. If not, maybe comma separated values on the relay hints could work as well
cc @npub1ye5…knpr I think this type of URL syntax would work well on Blossom too

Hi @npub1qds…gfw3 The translation feature only activates for languages that are not configured as a preferred language in iOS.
You can check and modify your preferred language settings in the iOS settings app > General > Language & Region > Preferred Languages
I believe it’s possible that adding an international keyboard might have also added that language as a preferred language automatically, but you should be able to tweak those iOS settings independently (e.g. I have a Japanese keyboard on mine, but I have removed Japanese from my preferred languages list)

NextCloud is a nice way to get a “cloud-like” experience on a home server you control. It has a familiar UI that makes it a nice choice if you want to help onboard a family member or friend who is less technical into your home server.
Unfortunately, I find many setups and tutorials to be non-ideal (e.g. Missing HTTPS support, unclear configuration, spread-out data, lack of backups, etc).
So I wrote a guide that (I believe) solves a lot of these issues. If you are looking to improve your NextCloud setup, this might be an interesting read!
